I got the idea to cut my bags in retangle strips to do the plank look. I paid $20 for a case, stack or what ever they call the package.... of just grocery bags. I got them from the Save A Lot grocery store. They are 5 cents a bag. I decided I liked that better than the rolls. Like Val Roche mentioned, the rolls have different sides and I did not like that part of it all. I am doing mine on top of really icky, black glue floors that were originally Terrazzzo. I plan to sand mine to make sure I get a good adhesion. Oh yes, you can get a large 12 piece sandpaper at the Dollar Tree (that's a dollar plus tax for 12 pieces). I did not like paying $4 for just four pieces at HD.

I know it was at least a month. Well, NO one in my neighborhood used them and I was the first to have a metal roof. I caught a lot of crap about "no one else has a metal roof" and then all of a sudden two, three and more further down.... they are expensive. And I also got the "why are you putting a metal roof on, you don't need a new roof". Then about a year later the costs doubled because of the new laws. Whose laughing now?

loving gal myself. I sure hope I get to tour the inside also. Congratulations on your new home! And I am curious as to what color is iconic for that style to be, Connie Nikiforoff Designs. I like it yellow and white, but who am I to say?

well. I am still changing my mind on some stuff with trying to make storage space for my kitchen, but this one is a keeper.

any chance paint your curtains to match as well? I can not tell from the photo, but they are both a pleasing soft color it seems the go very well with everything you have done.

oh well. It is better for sure and new is nice too.

thrive. A lot of plants don't like to have 'wet feet'. I wish my mom was still here to tell you about her African Violets she grew OUTSIDE.... and the bloomed and thrived.... me I am famous for killing the poor little things. My mom also had tons of Orichids hanging from trees... made me cry to remember all this.

my one rose bush and I am going to put this solution via a garden hose sprayer on my Lilies in my yard that have never want to bloom since I moved them here. This is the entire post that I copied and pasted.

Actually I keep mine in the same pots they come in, every other day they get submerged into a 5 gallon bucket filled with 1/2 cup of epson salts and 3 gallons of regular water until the soil stops bubbling, then they are hung up to drip dry. I live in the DC area so humidity is not an issue and always, always have ferns that are dark green, glossy, and 3x3' by September from ferns that start out with 7" fronds in May... <:footer class="comment-footer group">
